Swing: How do I add buttons to specific spots on a panel?

[dodge]

Hi,

I currently have a 500 * 500 image which is the background of a JPanel (So I suppose I have a 500 * 500 JPanel, basically).

I would like to be able to place (20*20) buttons on various places of this image - for instance, add button1 at position (200, 420), then button2 at position (100, 480), etc. Is there a straight forward way to do this?

Thanks.

import java.applet.*;
import java.awt.*;


 public class DoButton extends Applet {

 	Button b1;

 	public void init() {

 		b1 = new Button("Press Me");
 		add(b1);
 	}
 }

Try this it might work.

No. That just adds it to the container. You need to set the location using the setLocation(int, int) or setLocation(Point) method.

Good luck!
